S&P Global and IBM Deploy Agentic AI to Improve Enterprise Operations

Strategic alliance combines IBM AI Orchestration with S&P Global data to transform supply chain, procurement, finance and insurance

S&P Global (NYSE: SPGI) and IBM (NYSE: IBM) today announced they are partnering to embed IBM's watsonx Orchestrate agentic framework into S&P Global's suite of offerings, starting with supply chain management. This collaboration aims to equip businesses with AI-powered tools to help tackle some of the biggest challenges in today's global supply chain. The new offering is designed to provide S&P Global clients with solutions that enhance insight and visibility into supply chain and vendor selection tools, leveraging AI agents and combining data and content across procurement, trade, country and supplier risk domains. S&P Global will also build new agents for IBM's watsonx Orchestrate Agent Catalog using S&P Global's proprietary data, research, and analytics aimed to expedite decision-making across supply chain management. Beyond supply chain, S&P Global plans to integrate IBM AI technology with additional risk intelligence services in its Market Intelligence division.

"Partnering with IBM will elevate the AI-driven capabilities we offer to our customers in the supply chain space," said Saugata Saha , President of S&P Global Market Intelligence and Chief Enterprise Data Officer of S&P Global. "By integrating IBM's innovative AI capabilities with S&P Global's distinctive data and analytics offerings, we are creating an exciting combination that is set to advance actionable insights and streamline workflows. Our goal with this collaboration is to empower organizations in improving procurement strategies, managing risks, and making informed decisions – ultimately driving greater efficiency in a changing market."

"Supply chains have become increasingly global and complex, and AI agents can help businesses restore control," said Rob Thomas , Chief Commercial Officer and Senior Vice President of IBM. "Combining IBM's watsonx Orchestrate AI capabilities with S&P Global's supply chain data allows agents to connect data to action, streamlining processes and quickly adapting to help optimize performance. Our collaboration with S&P Global will expand to leveraging agentic AI to improve other core business functions such as finance, procurement and insurance."

S&P Global's supply chain offering is part of its Market Intelligence division's Risk & Valuation Services portfolio. The portfolio's suite of products powers global markets by bringing together differentiated data, valuations, analytics and deep market expertise to help the market pinpoint risk exposures, price assets and create transparency. Powered by S&P Global's Enterprise Data Organization, the company is committed to providing AI-ready data designed for machine learning and AI applications to enable faster model development and deployment. This collaboration is also another step in S&P Global's vision for agentic AI. Via Kensho, its AI innovation hub, S&P Global is developing trusted AI agents to transform the enterprise and the value it brings to customers.

IBM watsonx Orchestrate is a single solution to orchestrate AI agents, assistants and workflows across businesses. In May, IBM introduced Agent Catalog—a central hub within watsonx Orchestrate that simplifies discovery of innovative agents from IBM and its partner ecosystem. It currently features 500+ pre-built agents and tools.

Statements regarding IBM's and S&P Global's future direction and intent are subject to change or withdrawal without notice, and represent goals and objectives only.
